Mountain Colors Cowl

Bobbe has two new designs this week! The first, Mountain Colors Fan and Feather Cowl,takes advantage of Mountain Colors Perspectives kit in Crazyfoot. This kit comes with 5 gradient hand-dyed yarns. This cute neckwarmer would be a great gift! Pattern is free with yarn kit purchase.

 

Lotus Silky Cashmere Cowl

Bobbe's other new design uses Lotus Yarn's Silky Cashmere - a wonderfully soft and lightweight blend of silk and cashmere. Eyelet panels and garter stitch blocks are combined in this cowl to keep you warm all winter! This design is long enough to wear doubled up like in the picture. This pattern takes only one skein of yarn and is free with yarn purchase.

 

Fresco Simply Slouchy Hat

Need an easy knit hat that will fit most everyone on your gift knitting list? The Fresco Simply Slouchy Hat fits the bill. This free pattern from Classic Elite Yarns uses 2 skeins of Fresco, a soft and fuzzy wool/alpaca/angora blend yarn, and comes in 3 sizes. Great for guys or girls!

 

A Note from Christina, Organizer of Threads of Kindness:

Hello everyone...I'd like to invite you to join a group that is very near to my heart as I know it is for many of you.  We are working to provide hospice patients in middle Tennessee with a blanket or shawl for a little comfort at a time when they may most need it and preemie blankets and hats to many of the Nashville's Neo-Natal units.  If you think this giving opportunity may be right for you, please reach out to us.  We are fortunate to have generous yarn donations from Haus of Yarn helping us along our way and would love to share our stash with you.
